Inner
City
Press: in this
recent
fighting that
you gave the
readout on,
between the
FARDC [Armed
Forces of the
Democratic
Republic of
the Congo] and
M23, the
spokesman for
the FARDC or
the Congolese
Government has
said that they
are going to
display
captured M23
rebels in a
press
conference in
Goma. Since it
seems that the
intervention
brigade is
subject to
Geneva
Convention
rules and
since MONUSCO
works closely
with the
Government,
does it comply
with existing
international
humanitarian
law to parade
and display
captured
combatants in
an armed
conflict?

Spokesperson
Martin
Nesirky: I
haven’t seen
those reports,
Matthew. I’d
need to check
into them
first.
